I confirmed with AT&T that they did shut off the GPS capability of Blackberry maps, you need to subscribe to Telenav for GPS. They also stated that you have to pay to use the 802.11 with one of their data plans. i could put up with the data plan, but not the requirement to pay for telenav when the phone was designed to provide it for free.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
